I thank Nellie getting the players, matchup problems, and offense, but he doesn't coach well in games, just bad or slow decisions...with mostly bad plays (except for out of bound under the basket ones). He also underuse Andris, and over use Air France and Jackson.... Coachs like POP are extremely nit picky, and that's how they win championships... Nellie lets the small things go.. So i definitely think that if we want a deep run, we need a better coach. I also think we should get Jeff Van Gundy as a defensive specialist...

We need to trade MP for any good defensive backup center, like mutombo (since he's not really playing minutes in houston), or anyone else...just lose him.
With Jackson, sure he makes those clutch threes that get on the highlights, but thats after shooting 5-16, bitching and not playing defense... I think overall productivity could be better with another player like Buike or move Al to the small.
We should trade him for mike miller(who shoots 3s better) + picks since the grizzleys are rebuilding. Also Jackson gets soooo much publicity with every sports caster stating that we started the season losing 6, and then he came back and we started winning.... Nooo its just that we got back into groove...so he will be worth something on the market.
I seen that o'bryant can defend, so if he gets some more playing time and plays well, a roster that might go deep in the playoffs looks something like this:
PG: BARON/WATSON
SG:ELLIS/BUIKE/MILLER _--- ok yea miller should be before buike
SF:AL/BARNES/BUIKE/WRIGHT
PF:ANDRIS/AL/WRIGHT
C:BRYANT/ANDRIS/MUTOMBO/AL
best case is when andris and obryant are on the floor together, since the west just got alot bigger.

1) im not in favor of this...i think people are too quick to blame anyone after a loss.

2) why the hell is mike miller the third option sg? <---- (i see youve changed your depth chart and have miller as the 6th man. honestly, there is no way miller should be coming off the bench. much of the reason he wouldnt be on our team...it would be just a waste of talent)

Remember xbay, Miller would be playing for Jeff Van Gundy who would take over after thewaiverproject of Nelson.. Yea Mullin is gonna fire Nelson at the All Star Break, Hire Jeff then trade for Mutombo.. Brilliant.
